SOLVING EQUATIONS A MATH 8 WEBQUEST
How do you use equations in everyday life?
Mr. McDermott & Dr. Brewer have asked you to order and sell T-shirts with the Dominion logo for an upcoming fundraiser. The t-shirt vendor has three different pricing options, shown below:
-
$115 for the first t-shirt and $13 for each additional shirt
-
$225 for the first t-shirt and $9 for each additional shirt
-
$325 for the first t-shirt and $6 for each additional shirt
Before you buy the shirts, Mr. McDermott & Dr. Brewer would like you to submit a written report and/or presentation that explains:
-
The conditions under which each pricing option would be best
-
Which pricing option to use if we have a $400, $500, or $600 budget for buying shirts
-
Your recommendation for how many shirts to order, which pricing option to use, and how much to sell the shirts for to make a profit of at least $200.
